Thesis has taken over my life

Well, since I officially haven't been able to keep up with making bento lunches in Sweden, I am going to post old photos that I just never got around to posting.  At least there will be something nice to look at. 

So...in the top of the bento box is an apple and satsuma.  Satsuma oranges are my absolute favorite and I really wish they grew them here in Sweden.  

In the bottom of the bento, there is some potatoes, green beens and carrot sticks.  I don't remember how the potatoes or beans were cooked, but I bet they were delicious!  The little piggy (hard boiled egg) is really happy with the lunch!  Although, I'm not too happy tha
t the left side of his face didn't turn out so well.  I'll have to work on finding larger eggs to fit the molds better.

So, the second bento lunch we have here makes me wish that delicious thai food existed in Sweden.  I'm going to bet that this leftover pad thai was purchased from Chow,
which was just down the street from me when lived in San Diego.  YUM. 
 The gyoza are most likely frozen ones from Trader Joe's.  Frozen corn, half an apple and some edemame are in the top tier.  Mmm...I'm getting super hungry just looking at this!  I'll be back in the US soon enough, where the food actually has flavor and spice!  I can't wait!
